  • E 105 Tongue Tie Surgery, Mercury Free, No Root Canals Dr. Allen Sprinkle, DDS

    Dr. Allen Sprinkle, DDS talks to Dr. Justin Trosclair DC on A Doctor's Perspective Podcast.







    Tongue tie surgery, frenuloplasty,what is it, how can it cause headaches, forward head posture and poor sleep. Wetalk airway obstruction -how a dentist can help, why use mercury free fillings, root canal danger and DTR. Dr Allen Sprinkle DDS



    What is TruDenta and why does
    he prefer the DTR (disclusion time reduction therapy) instead for bite
    disturbances?  Two techniques to help
    determine how you are biting, where is the pressure, how is the pressure
    transferred between each teeth  and then
    you can make dental recommendations based on the results.



    DTR has true implications for
    TMD TMJ problems but yet only 2% of the dentist have this technology, why is
    that?



    Can improper crown fittings
    create bite disturbances?



    Posterior teeth have peripheral
    nerves and if they have too much friction when chewing it can create a
    hyperactive impulse that goes straight to the trigeminal nucleus instead of
    going to the spine first so you get even more tension and grinding.



    Dr. Spinkle discusses in detail
    about the important of a baby sucking their thumb in helping shape the arch of
    the palate. Then he goes into how malformations of the palate arch can turn
    into breathing and airway obstructions.  V shaped palates, narrow nasal passages, mouth
    breathing, Eustachian tube blockages, ear infections, headaches and possible
    even personality changes.



    If you have a tongue tie (frenulum)
    where you can’t lift your tongue very high or stick your tongue out past your
    front teeth, it can lead to even more issues. Our body adapts to not having
    clear air passage by giving shots of adrenaline and the body recognizes it
    needs more air so one of the side effects is forward head posture.



    Dr. Spinkle specializes in
    releasing the tongue tie (frenotomy) via surgery. After a tongue tie release he
    sees patients have improved posture and patients report headaches and tension
    in their neck and pressure in their head almost immediately improve as well as
    one patient whose stuttering ceased.  He
    tells a few patient success stories with the tongue tie release procedure.



    Tells several powerful stories
    that might even seem to good to be true about the results of a tongue tie
    release.



    Reasons why chain smoking and
    nail biting might be an indication of a chronic partially obstructed airway.



    Mouth breathing can lead to
    cavities, gum disease, clinching and grinding. This also leads to poor
    breathing habits.



    Tongue tie surgery can be called:
    functional ankyloglossia, lingual frenuloplasty, frenotomy



    Before you do the surgery, it
    is a good idea to do myofunctional therapist for tongue exercises from an
    expert, think special trained physical therapist.



    Does he have to redo any
    surgeries, does scar tissue play a factor in long term results?  Headaches and muscle tension relief are two
    common results from the frenuloplasty (tongue tie surgery).

    patient might have a tongue tie. Step by step exam as well as questions to ask.



    Why did he decide to become a
    Mercury Free dentist? Mercury is the second most neuro toxic chemical to a
    human so why is it allowed in our teeth and does it leak out and cause d...

  • E 104 BNI Networking Groups Success Tactics with Hazel Walker





    Hazel Walker talks to Dr. Justin Trosclair DC on A Doctor's Perspective Podcast.



    The number 1 worldwide franchise owner of BNI, Hazel Walker, discussesbetter ways to invite guests, the GAIN profile to make 1 on 1’s productive,teaching others to be a referral machine, and author of differences of how menand women network.



     The number 1 worldwide franchise
    owner of BNI, Hazel Walker, discusses better ways to invite guests, the GAIN
    profile to make 1 on 1’s productive, teaching others to be a referral machine,
    and author of differences of how men and women network.



    BNI franchise only winner of the Hall Of
    Fame owner because she had the #1 franchise in the world for 13 straight months
    in Indiana. She was recruited to run Perth Australia and was there for 6 years
    before moving back to the USA just before thanksgiving.



    Learn about
    the Givers Gain philosophy.  And Now BNI
    has online training and an app to pass referrals.



    Why do we
    always try to sell new invites to BNI instead of just inviting them to meet
    amazing other business owners.  BNI and
    the flow of the meeting will sell itself.



    One key
    mindset is that BNI is built for you to expand your referral network, not just
    sell to the members.



    She goes
    into a Super Structured Flow of a 1 on 1
    meeting. The G.A.I.N. sheet.  (the
    Accomplishments and Interests are particularly interesting.)



    Those
    meetings are meant for you to just shoot the breeze. Make the most out of that
    time by following her recommendations. 
    Teach the other person to identify your target customer is and then how
    to refer them to you.



    Who do you
    know Who…?



    Why is that
    some of the non USA chapters have more eye doctors, dentists and alternative
    care doctors and therapists where as in USA those are harder to find
    (chiropractors are usually in the USA groups though)?



    If you have
    multiple doctors in your office, what are the benefits of having each member in
    a different BNI Chapter?



    Why should
    you screen new members especially if one clinic in town is joining lots of
    groups?



    Why are the
    Asian Countries like China, Thailand, Hong Kong, India and Singapore eclipsing
    in growth and enthusiasm for BNI compared to Europe and North America?



    Differences
    of men and women in networking. What are some of the traits that men have that
    women should adopt and vice versa?



    Story
    telling fashion of referring business and going deep into the relationship are
    commonly women characteristic. 



    Which sex
    gives more qualified referrals? Which sex asks for the deal more commonly?



    How can the
    GAIN Profile for 1 on 1’s done correctly also be translated into how you talk
    and market and interact with customers?



    Is it
    appropriate to hit on the opposite sex at networking events? What are some ways
    for women to stand their ground if it happens to them?



    Small town
    BNI chapters… they can work, but why be careful of kicking someone out nad
    keeping everyone accountable?



    What has she
    learned about work life balance from living in Perth? She takes the last two
    weeks of the year as her “Thinking” time for the following year.

  • E 103 Post Knee Surgery Rehab, Range of Motion and Strength –X10 Therapy Machine with PJ Ewing

    PJ Ewing talks to Dr. Justin Trosclair DC on A Doctor's Perspective Podcast.







    Post knee surgery rehab now has a new machine to increase
    range of  motion  (ROM) and strength in a matter of 3 weeks.
    That leaves you with more functional rehab with a physical therapist. Learn
    about the x10 knee therapy machine with PJ Ewing.



    The X10 is a specialized knee rehab equipment co-developed by his dad and a coworker of the orthopedic surgeon who invented  knee replacement surgery.  The x10 machine is about the size of arecliner and goes usually into a patients home for 2-5 weeks.  It helps prepare the knee for surgery butusually is used to regain Range of Motion post knee replacement , patellafracture or ACL surgery as well as rebuild the strength.



    He discusses how the computer and the knee apparatus can
    sense the resistance in real time, pain and end range of motion, ROM, and then
    adjust in real time to maximize where you are and then increase it all in pain
    free motions. The company has coaches and doctors that oversee each treatment
    and can tweak the program for each person each visit.



    The machine can sense the resistance decrease and it has
    been programmed to know that might be because of pain. So it holds it there for
    10 seconds and alternates to flexion and extension  terminal end points.



    Usually a patient is doing this pain free treatment 35
    minutes a day, 3 times a day so it doesn’t take but a couple weeks to get your
    range of motion (110-115 degrees) back (without having to have a MUA of knee
    scar tissue) and so your physical therapy is now on walking and strength
    instead of  regaining painful ROM.



    Continuous Passive Motion Machine vs x10. Why is one shown
    to do just about nothing but still being recommended like crazy.



    X10 knee is covered by some insurance companies in Michigan
    but they are working on expanding coverage in other states.



    Does this tool / machine replace the Physical Therapist? If
    not, how do they work together?



    Remove the ROM component and utilize your PT visits for more
    comprehensive and fine tuning of the knee rehab.



    X10 is rapidly expanding with a new model this year and
    learn why they lease instead of sell these machines and how they plan to
    compete in other state market places.



    They get plenty of calls everyday for people to do
    telemedicine and medical vacations from other countries and states because of
    the limited reach at the moment. They plan to change that in 2019.



    As a startup company about to hit massive expansion, why is
    growth a key factor to consider and be concerned about managing properly?



    What type of videos have been far and away the most viewed
    and impactful for x10?

  • E 101 Eight Self Destructive Processes with Dr. Diane Harner PhD and Emotional Intelligence

    Dr. Diane Harner, PhD talks to Dr. Justin Trosclair DC on A Doctor's Perspective Podcast.



    What are good Emotional Intelligence type tests for hiring, how stress can motivate, ways to stop procrastination, self doubt, 8 self-destructive processes to work through, sleep and brain nutrition. Dr. Diane Harner PhD neuroscientist



    What are some of the drawbacks to being a Type A driven personality when it comes to managing your expectations of yourself and staff. Being trained in medicine is great because it becomes automatic and our brains love that, but you still have to be aware and think so you don’t make mistakes.



    When it comes to hiring staff, PA’s, NP’s - what are good Emotional Intelligence type tests to see who would be best and who can handle stressful situations. Attitude, interpersonal skills (she goes into these) and mock stress situations (great examples detailed) are important because you can rehearse interview answers and appear much better than realty.



    You really want to see how someone can handle stressful situation.



    What’s a tip or two to speed up the “fake it to you make it” that many new doctors and staff experience.



    Ways to avoid and safeguard from the tragic Burnout. Activation and energy to engage in a task, the task itself (pleasure/displeasure) and consequences of the task. How important is changing the environment to stay focused?



    Do you procrastinate? Reasons why we do it and how to tell when it’s a negative in your life.



    Ways to motivate your staff: it’s not always a gift card they want. Could be intrinsic or extrinisic motivation, could be time off, status, public praise… listen around minute 18. Learn your staff’s triggers and met them.



    Coaching conversations Versus WIPS (work in progress conversations) … put another way: conversations asking how the Person is compared to, are you meeting the deadlines for a project.



    Are the millennials forcing the hand of bosses to be more flexible with work arrangement and time constraints? Also, has every younger generation changed the work force?



    What type of nutrition and sleep can we do to allow our brain to adapt, change or learn to its peak potential? There is a link between exercise and the decrease of Alzheimer’s Disease. Why are zinc and magnesium so important for happiness and brain chemical regulation? Food is the best way to get your nutrients because of nature’s natural balance of minerals and micronutrients. Certain processes work best with proper ratios and if you are only taking a vitamin supplement you might become off.



    Early to bed gives you better quality sleep. I know I was disappointed to hear it makes a difference so do your best to change your routines and she gives a few pointers. So are you a night owl or an early bird… can you wake up without an alarm?



    Her most common clients are mid to senior level positions who are stuck in some area. She is finishing her master in counseling to give the full well rounded holistic approach to her clients. Let’s face it, usually there is some family or personal issues going on that’s translating into the business life.



    Here are the 8 criteria she looks at with each client. Self-doubt , perfectionism, impatience, multitasking, rigidity, procrastination, negativity, conformity. The Top 3 are below.



    Perfectionism (can be positive or negative)



    Procrastination



    Self Doubt – Imposter Syndrome



    Arousal stress can increase and stimulate great performance, but if it goes to far then it can hamper us aka diminishing returns.
